I've learned a lot of things as a mom, most of them i kinda knew anyways but didn't fully comprehend until i experienced it first hand. But the biggest thing, the thing that I think is important for other women to know is, that i am a good mom and so are the rest of the women i know out there. Of all the beautiful women i know, i've been exposed to a variety of parenting styles and ideals some i agreed with or wish i had incorporated in my parenting life and some i didn't agree with, but regardless of my opinion the women i know are amazing moms. i sometimes beat myself up over the choices i've made while raising Trace, but i think so far he's turned out to be a pretty neat person. i look at the children of my lady friends and think so far they are amazing little people as well. So i think my true message is, if you ever have those moments when you question your abilities as a parent or even wonder "how you got yourself into this mess", just know that we've all had those moments and you are doing a great job. Your children will grow up thinking their mom is superwoman, because you are!
